Fedora 44 Granted Approval For A Nicer NTSYNC Experience For Wine & Steam Play in c/linux@programming.dev
[–] TheFrirish@jlai.lu 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

For people who don’t know:

NTSYNC is a Linux kernel feature designed to help Windows programs run better on Linux, especially through compatibility layers like Wine or Proton (used in Steam).

NTSYNC puts Windows-style synchronization objects directly into the Linux kernel.

This means:

  1. Less emulation

  2. Faster performance (fewer context switches)

  3. Better compatibility for modern Windows apps and games

  4. Lower CPU overhead

New York is going to get the same media coverage as Paris did. Paris got so much better in the last 15 years it’s absolutely crazy.

National Guard shooting suspect worked with CIA in Afghanistan before coming to US in c/news@lemmy.world

I don’t think that it’s that crazy to say that this was planned by the CIA.

But that could just be complete paranoïa.

Or that these people are just dropped once they arrive in the USA.

Here's a look at how Android 17 will make alternative app stores easier to use in c/android@lemdro.id

Wow the whitewashing after the backlash. How can I think objectively when Google is so insultingly playing with my emotions? I'll stop reacting to these Android posts now because I'm just going to look like a bot paid by Apple then.

Google will let ‘experienced users’ keep sideloading Android apps, even from unverified developers. in c/android@lemdro.id

The terrible thing to me is that the damage is done. I cannot stand hypocrisy and even if the backtrack slightly I will not be getting a new device from the one who pretends to not be the devil. I would rather get it from the devil himself.

Button navigation is objectively better than gesture navigation. (jlai.lu)
 

I guess this has been said before but I want to reiterate it here.

The 3 button navigation is simpler, much faster than gestures and less prone to input errors than gessure navigation.

It's easier to use the phone one handed when using 3 buttons especially considering the size of phones nowadays.

The only real downside to the 3 button bar is the space it takes away from the screen. I can't deny you get better immersion due increased screen size and gestures being intuitive (for me at least.

With that said I understand that depending on the brand the feel of gestures and their quality can vary (like between a pixel phone and a xiaomi device), but in terms of efficiency (and maybe slightly improved battery life due to less animations) and simplicity the 3 button navigation is still miles ahead.
